    Yeah I'm starting to hate it too. Silt, risking hydrolocking, and a ton of traffic.

    I will barely go past the first river crossing unless it's clearly shallow enough or its winter and everything is frozen

    Agreed, I wanna clear up the confusion in the story, I DID NOT take my rig out there, I simply went for technical support and because I was bored

    Even in the winter it's still really sketchy, this past winter I was driving on ice that looked like snow and I didn't realize until I was already a little ways out, scary stuff, I've had too many close calls out there lol

    Hey Brandon which coils did you go with for your OME, and did you add top plate spacers? Just because I really liked the way yours sat when I saw it in person.

    Can't remember the model number, they are the heavy duty springs for extra weight in the front, and no spacers in the front, just the bushings and washers you need for everything
